Gaethje, 31, replaced lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov in a bout originally scheduled for April 18, and now after snapping Ferguson’s 12-fight winning streak, “The Highlight” will. Former interim UFC lightweight champion Ferguson (26-4, fighting out of Orange County, Calif.) seeks to place himself back at the top of the rankings with another signature victory.

In a recent interview with MMA Junkie, Kevin Lee discussed his return to the Octagon this summer as he hopes to get a rematch with Tony Ferguson. He mentioned this in the interview saying,

“I’m wanna fight Tony Ferguson. I think that fight makes a whole lot of sense from all angles. I don’t really see nobody else out there for him to fight and it just makes sense and it’ll put us back where we should be and a fight with me and him is gonna kind of show like one of us is gonna have to win one of us gonna have to leave so that that’s a fight that really interests me in this summer.”

These two former Grand Valley State University wrestlers faced each other in the octagon at UFC 216. But Kevin Lee aka “The Motown Phenom” lost to the “El Cucuy” via submission (triangle choke). Since then, Kevin Lee has wanted to get his redemption and is waiting to get back in the Octagon as soon as possible.
